But the ability to predict evolut ion remains a major challenge because it requires bridging several scales of biological organization. Potential evolutionary pathways are determined by the cellular “fitness landscape” (the genotype-phenotype relationship) \, but how this landscape is explored depends on the principles of populat ion genetics and ecology.\n\nIn this seminar\, I will describe a chromosom al barcoding technique that allows simultaneous tracking of ~106 distinct bacterial cell lineages in an evolving bacterial population. We used this approach to study microbial populations evolving under sub-inhibitory anti biotic concentrations and consequently to quantify the balance between dri ft\, mutation\, and selection. Additionally\, I will show how the barcodin g technology reveals the coupling between intra-species and community-leve l dynamics during bacterial colonization and antibiotic treatment in mamma lian gut.\n DTSTART:20201201T170000Z DTEND:20201201T180000Z LOCATION:CA\, QC SUMMARY:QLS Seminar Series- Adrian Serohijos URL:/qls/channels/event/qls-seminar-series-adrian-sero hijos-326295 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
